Hi Dave

AS41 case need a bore - 1st time bore .

in answer to your question , yes i would take a case as a trade in.

i dont pay much for them though !!

if you breakdown the build costs , there are £150 new parts, £50 machine work , £200 for 12 hours building and testing ,

that only leaves only £99 for a case, crank, pistons , barrels , heads , cam , and valve train, which are all good used items still within factory spec.

so as you can see im almost giving the engine away ..
